The Pittsburgh Steelers’ 2025 draft was subtly influenced by potential plans regarding Aaron Rodgers, even though the team claimed otherwise. Steelers owner Art Rooney II indicated ongoing interest from Rodgers in joining the team. The draft decision came with the selection of quarterback Will Howard in the sixth round, highlighting a cautious approach that signaling readiness for the future yet avoiding immediate quarterback needs. This reflects the uncertainty and strategic nuance surrounding the future of both the Steelers and Rodgers.
"We're still kind of getting the same signals that we've been getting recently. He does want to come here, so I do think we may get word soon."
"We did not factor in whether Aaron is coming or not into that. If we do draft a quarterback -- and we still might -- it's probably not going to be somebody who is going to start for us this year."
